<h3>Name</h3>
pseudorand - pseudorandom number generator

<h3>Synopsis</h3>
device pseudorand0

<h3>Description</h3>

The pseudorand device implements a minimal pseudo-random number
generator that can be used if no hardware random source is found.
<p>

The pseudorand device is not necessary under normal circumstances,
because System/161 provides a simulated hardware random source. It may
be removed in the future.
